LOVE Catherine Lyons

One of the most popular up-and-coming girls on the Gymternet right now. 🙂

Catherine is a British gymnast born August 30, 2000. She is the 2012 Espoir British Champion, 2013 English and British AA silver medalist. She also won a silver medal as part of the team at the Australian Youth Olympic Festival (AYOF). …

Catherine trains at Europa Gymnastics Centre under Rochelle Douglas, who is a former British gymnast. Rochelle Douglas is also Catherine’s choreographer. …

Catherine has beautiful form and ridiculous flexibility and is one of the most artistic gymnasts out there. She has the potential to be an excellent All Around gymnast, but for now beam and floor are definitely her best events. …

Bad form. Bad technique.

Slight chance of injury.
